DBolical, the company behind Mod DB, has acquired the GameFront.com and FileFront.com domains from Defy media and has begun to restore the site and most, if not all, its content under a new design.

Let me just show my reaction, Star Wars Style:

Not a fan of the forum layout at all. Looks confusing to use. The files area looks pretty cool though.

 

Honestly, I can't see it rising up to be the way it was. If they can't restore all the old forum posts and files, it almost seems kinda pointless, no?

Yeah, when I first read the headline I assumed they meant all the old stuff was being restored from archives or something - but a totally blank slate? I don't quite understand, couldn't they just incorporate the elements they like into the main ModDB site if that's the case?

 

Ah well, won't look a gift horse in the mouth too much!

 

EDIT: Wait, it does appear that some files at least have been restored? I'm going through them now, I don't know how much has been recovered though.

Cool, but none of the old mods are still there right?

[Penekowski]

Wait what? are the files/posts being restored? if so that would be awesome, so many mods/valuable info that could be recovered!

Yeah, it would be nice if at least the forums could be restored. There could be a lot of useful information there, me learning how to get character animations in the game wouldn't be possible without digging up info on Lucas Forums.
